Widely regarded as one of the most talented players in the CIS region, mir has been on Vega Squadron's books since November 2016. In 2017, he averaged a 1.18 rating on LAN and helped his team to reach PGL Major Krakow and to win back-to-back China Top events.

Gambit will face Heroic on Saturday morning in the lower bracket semi-final of the European closed qualifier for ESL One Cologne, but it is unclear whether mir will already be playing this match for the team. Next week, the Kazakhstani side will attend StarSeries i-League Season 5, where AVANGAR will be their first opponent.

With these reported changes, Gambit's starting roster will look as follows:

ZEUS OMEGALUL
>someone who can’t kill shit and is a terrible IGL who is praised for a fluke major
>someone who can frag well for an igl and has new updated strats
-Zeus +ange1
-Edward +good ruski
Ez navi top 1

One tournament doesn’t prove anything. Not taking away from the incredible cs they played..though adren was at career peak that major and everything was clicking. Just with c9. Zeus played an integral part in that success, but not the main part.

I respect mir, I just dont understand the meaning behind that move. They need a good IGL, yet they just replace one rifler with another, I don't think mir is that better than seized tbh. Makes no sense

Without proper leadership it doesn't matter who plays on a team.
And yeah, navi are idiots, keeping deadward for so long is retarded, now they're losing a chance to sign a much better replacement for him, like how dumb an org can be?

mihail stolyarov is smart man
he got rid of seized and took his job as IGL from him but he realized if he was the only russian on the team and they got another kazakh on the team eventually the borat would try to overthrow him to create an ultranationalist kazakhstani powerhouse team, like it already almost happened when fitch was on the team.
so mihail made sure that seizeds replacement would be another russki to strengthen his position in the team.
hail x god.

Mihail is a very intelligent and farsighted man. He knows how to manipulate, he knows how to keep everything under control.
He will be never cutted from the roster.
I mean he's the main person in Gambit, his word is law.
Everyone respect this generous man.

It's actually a good move, Seized wasn't able to fix their lack of leadership and didn't had much to offer on another position. But Gambit still has a lot issues than Mir won't solve by himself.
Seized is still young tho, maybe has a chance to grind back to his old level on the right team.

Its upgrade anyway, maybe one little detail will change whole picture. Seized was very predictable player who is really struggles to get multi-kills consistently with positional advantage. Mou looks like has stopped progressing as a player, maybe he should train more and watch other awpers demo. Be more aggressive, control the pace of the game and find the balance.

seized is the biggest bot of pro competitive scene i ever seen in his carrer ... stop begging drunk every fucking day and start playing csgo like other who wants win every fucking pro match,its looks like seized seriously trolling it..

He probably heard they were in talk. Lookie ima tryin' hard! ^^
This time he has not much to look forward to. Being dropped from gambit is a lot more troublesome than being dropped from na'vi.
What are his opportunities?
